So imagine how thrilled I was to watch my buddy Craig Colson on the FOX news telling me despite the lack of snow the Annual Paul Bunyan Snocross for this weekend is still on at Bass Park for both Saturday and Sunday.

Crews from Bangor have been hauling in snow from all over town to build the course around the oval track for the two day event. The Bangor CVB reports were that the City of Bangor deserves a big thanks for hauling much of the snow from the airport.
